hey all, i bought this kit about 2 weeks ago and have been working on it in my spare time when im at school. It's my first model, and i know it has some flaws, like the paint and everything, but hopefully my next will be better. Just thought i'd share some pics of my work. I just bought a supra and it should be coming in pretty soon....cant wait, these things are incredible. The detail these models have is amazing. Well, here ya go, and let me know what you think of my first one...

They might be water-based stickers.

you cut out the decal that your putting on, dip it in warm water for like 10 secs, put it on a clothfor a few seconds to get the excess water off. then just basically slide the sticker off the paper and put it onto the car, and smooth out the bubbles and water with a paper towel or something.
